I think that writing the address into /etc/hosts may cause you problems
eventually because it will get out of date when you remove containers and
potentially recycle addresses.
Stephane's solution has the advantage that it looks up the address
dynamically when you need it. I really like the idea of putting the look-up
into ~/.ssh/config, especially because it allows you to other useful things
like turning off some security checking and setting the username.
If you don't like that solution because of the non-locality, you might
prefer to write a small script, say `lxc-ssh`:
$1=container
ssh $(host $container 10.0.3.1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $NF}')
